MPEG-2 recording at up to 50Mbps (4:2:2)

The XF100 records MPEG-2 MXF (Media eXchange Format) files - up to
1920 x 1080 Full HD at 50Mbps (4:2:2) - to relatively inexpensive
and widely available CompactFlash (CF) memory cards. Relay
Recording across two card slots allow filming to continue without
interruption, whilst Double Slot Recording lets you store the same
footage to both cards.

Light, compact design; XLR inputs

Putting exceptional functionality in the palm of your hand, the
durable and lightweight design enables exceptional versatility.
Linear PCM audio can be captured via twin XLR inputs and also using
the front-mounted stereo microphone.

1/3 type Full HD Canon CMOS

A 2.07MP Full HD CMOS sensor - designed and manufactured by Canon -
captures Full HD video at native 1920x1080 resolution. The sensor
is equipped with a Bayer pattern colour filter for high sensitivity
and wide dynamic range; high-speed data readout technology
minimises rolling-shutter skew that can occur in CMOS
camcorders.

3D Assist Functions; Infrared shooting mode

The XF100 features 3D Shooting Assist functions (OIS Axis Shift and
Focal Length Guide) which support stereoscopic 3D video capture
using two camcorders. With twice the infrared (IR) sensitivity of
previous models it's also perfect for low light shooting using the
new IR Shooting Mode and built-in IR lamp. Green and white options
are available to suit different projects.

8.8cm (3.5'') 920k dot LCD; 0.6cm (0.24"), 260k dot
EVF

Both camcorders feature a large, side-mounted LCD. This 8.8cm
(3.5") screen has a sharp, 920k dot resolution, with a built-in
waveform monitor and Edge Focus function to help set up the shot. A
0.61cm (0.24''), 260k dot EVF with 100% coverage is also available.

Variable frame rates

A wide range of frame rates is available, from 12 to 50 fps. This
gives cameramen the freedom to alter the capture rate for
additional creative flexibility.
